This Aerospace Firm's Profits Are Poised to Soar as It Explores Mars

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

When we spoke on Nov. 29, I suggested you invest in Boeing as a play on the boom in Asian air travel.

Ordinarily, I would not come right back so quickly and tell you to take a look at another aerospace stock. But that's exactly what I'm doing today.

And for a very good reason. See, just last week, NASA made another historic landing on the surface of Mars.

After a journey that took seven months and covered 301 million miles, the NASA InSight lander touched down and got right to work by beaming down a picture of the red planet.

That photograph is only the beginning. The robotic craft will spend the next two years gathering and transmitting important data back to Earth.

Doing so will reap insight about the geography and history of Mars. It will help scientists better understand the planet's long-term climate and why water no longer exists on the surface there.

It's fascinating work. But there's more happening here than simply compiling and analyzing enormous swaths of planetary data. Much more.

That's why today, I want to let you know about the big-cap aerospace leader that played a pivotal role in InSight's successful landing. And why this firm is poised for long-term appreciation...

This Silicon Valley Mover Is Set Up for Triple-Digit Gains

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

A tech powerhouse I've been tracking closely has gained some 290% over the past five years.

Plus, a beat-and-raise quarter sent its shares up more than 6% on Nov. 6, when the Nasdaq was still in a correction.

That kind of strength in the face of weakness is reason enough to watch a stock.

But I've got more personal reasons for following this big winner.

See, I personally played a small role in its success.

During my 35-plus years in Silicon Valley, I've served as a venture capital firm board member – and I've acted as a senior adviser to a dozen tech startups.

That's a practice I continue today.

While I'll bet no one at this tech firm realizes it, during its big run-up, it bought one the startups I advised – and that $126 million acquisition played a substantial role in its growth.

With that in mind, today I'll show you why this Valley leader is making moves up while most of tech is tumbling.

And then I'll show you exactly how long you'll have to wait to pick up your own triple-digit returns on its stock (Hint: it's not long).

Facebook's Security Woes Are Setting This Cybersecurity Stock Up for a Quick 20% Gain

By , Money Morning -

facebook

Over the last year, Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ: FB) shares have fallen more than 16% as data breaches and political scandals plague the company's public reputation.

However, the social media giant appears to be on the verge of turning a corner.

Last month, reports surfaced that Facebook intends to acquire a cybersecurity firm in an effort to strengthen its digital defenses and regain public trust.

And that's great news for cybersecurity stocks. Facebook currently has $42 billion in cash on hand, giving it more than enough to lock down an acquisition.

Celebrate Singles' Day by "Marrying" This "Quiet Giant" Tech Stock

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

We're just two days away from what will almost certainly be a massive e-commerce haul.

Worth an estimated $25 billion, this one-day event is worth more than what Americans spend on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, two of the nation's biggest shopping events.

I'm talking about Singles' Day, an unofficial Chinese holiday that began in 1993 to address the hundreds of millions of unmarried people.

And in the last several years, Nov. 11 has become a de facto shopping holiday sponsored by web giant Alibaba.

Now, most tech analysts would be suggesting you capitalize on this by investing in Alibaba or another Chinese web giant.

But here at Strategic Tech Investor, we go way beyond the headlines to give you analysis you won't find anywhere else.

That's why today, I want to show you a way to invest in the much larger global e-commerce trend, one that is worth $9.6 trillion in the United States alone.

This American "quiet giant" generates $600 million in cash every year – which goes right back into investors' pockets.

It's the landlord to the entire web.

And it just got the go-ahead to raise rents.

That means its shares are set to soar – and crush the overall market.

This Tech Stock Is Crushing the Market and Could Still Double from Here

By , Guest Writer, Money Morning -

Today, I'll show you a tech stock that has not only climbed 30% in the last month, but could double in share price from here.

Sadly, most investors have missed out on these types of gains.

You see, the proliferation of Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) has resulted in broad-brushed, mind-numbing investment strategies that fail to consider that what matters most are the underlying fundamentals of a particular stock.

Instead of investors targeting good ideas, the herd turns to "themes" in the search for market-beating returns.

That's not what we're doing today...

These Are the Next "FANG" Stocks to Buy

By , Money Morning -

October was a rough month for investors. The giant technology stocks that led the way higher all last year took it on the chin and dragged the rest of the market down with them.

So, then what? Where can we take advantage of the global sell-off to buy quality companies at bargain prices?

While we love the traditional FANG stocks, this group of the next FANG stocks is a great place to invest now...

This "Extinction Comeback" Tech Stock Could Double in Less Than 3 Years

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

You've probably heard – numerous times – that the fictional world of "Jurassic Park" is about to become reality.

And probably every time, after you read the article or listened to the report, the actual innovation was a letdown.

Well, this time, I'm the one telling you that the fictional world of "Jurassic Park" is about to become a reality – and I truly hope what I'm about to tell you isn't a disappointment.

No, I'm not predicting we will see the rebirth of dinosaurs.

But we may soon see formerly extinct species spring to life once again.

Scientists in Australia recently used a cutting-edge gene-editing technique to insert DNA from the passenger pigeon, which went extinct in 1914, into the common pigeon. If all goes as planned, birds from that flock will become the first animals to have genetic codes from an extinct species.

Now that's no letdown and will be, if successful, a huge scientific breakthrough.

There could be a big profit breakthrough here too.

The so-called next-generation sequencing (NGS) market that underpins these breakthroughs will be worth $21.4 billion by 2025, according to Grand View Research.

That would be astounding 362% growth from the $4.62 billion NGS market of 2015.

And you can ride that soaring market with the company I'm going to tell you all about.

This Tech Company Is Designing the Future of Self-Driving Cars

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

Self-driving cars

I've fallen in head-over-heels in love once gain.

And no, my wife has nothing to worry about. It's not a younger woman or anything like that.

Instead, it's a 321-horsepower V-6 beast of a car that handles like a dream but is also very economical to drive.

Then again, this is a three-motor hybrid model equipped with a seven-speed automatic transmission that you shift from the steering wheel when in sport mode.

That's not all – not by a long shot. See, my new 2019 Acura MDX Sport Hybrid excels at semiautonomous driving.

Now I know from personal experience why analysts say the market for self-driving autos will grow a stunning 10-fold, to a whopping $556 billion, in less than a decade.

Clearly that is a massive market, and one that savvy tech investors would do well to target.

Today, I want to reveal one of the best and brightest companies in tech.

It's a great play on autonomous driving.

Heck, it's a great play on virtual reality, machine learning, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and cryptocurrencies... and just about everything else going down in Silicon Valley.

And it could easily hand us 65% gains in just the next 12 months – and much more than that for many years to come.

Here's why...

The Best Tech Stock to Buy Now Is an HR Juggernaut

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

These are boom times for the overall workforce in the U.S., and independent contractors as well.

A record 150 million Americans had jobs at the end of August, the last month for full data. That's an increase of 2.3 million jobs in just one year.

Plus, there's also a record 6.9 million openings just waiting to be filled. And a 3.9% unemployment rate is one of the best we've seen in decades.

Now, when we spoke on Sept. 26, I told you of a great way to play the rise of the independent workforce.

After all, this group is growing much faster than the overall jobs boom. As I noted, that's a rising market with a lot of profit potential.

But today, I want to talk about the opportunities that are waiting on the flip side of that investing coin.

In others words, I want to introduce you to a tech leader that has the right products to help employers manage their growing number of workers... and stands ready to meet a very target-rich market.

I'm talking about a fast-moving firm that's doubling its sales every two years.

Here's how...

Double Your Money in Two Years with This Cybersecurity Stock

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

CUDA stock price

This is going to sound... odd. But hear me out.

Shopping for tires has a lot in common with picking cybersecurity stocks.

Here's how I came up with this line of thought.

My wife needs new tires for her luxury SUV, an Infiniti FX35, and they need to perform in all sorts of weather.

See, we live up in the hills, and she drives to work along narrow roads with dangerous, hairpin curves.

Some mornings, the fog is so thick that the roads get slick. In the rainy season, these roads get even slicker. If she skidded and went over the side, she could easily plunge 200 feet to the bottom of a canyon.

In other words, we are willing to pay extra to get excellent performance in all conditions.

You should take the same approach to investing in the growth field of cybersecurity.

While this is a vital industry, many of the stocks in this sector are choppy and news-driven.

That makes it easy to lose money on those kinds of trades if you get the timing wrong.

But I have uncovered what I believe is a great "all-weather" cybersecurity leader. This is the kind of stock that will keep you on the road to wealth even in the stormiest of conditions.

Plus, it's going to double in 2.4 years.

And I can prove it...

The Best Tech Stock to Profit on the Booming Self-Employment Trend

By , Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI -

Earlier this month, we celebrated the best Labor Day weekend in decades.

No, I'm not talking about all of those holiday sales – or my backyard barbecue (though it was pretty awesome).

Instead, I'm talking about the numbers the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics unveiled on Friday, Sept. 1, a few days before Labor Day.

According to the BLS, the nation created more than 200,000 jobs in August, beating forecasts. The unemployment rate remained at a decades-low 3.9%.

On top of that, wages are finally on the rise after stagnating since the recovery began almost a decade ago. With a 2.9% year-on-year growth, wages climbed at their fastest rate since June 2009.

But here's the thing. There's something about this jobs boom that Wall Street isn't telling you about.

Independent contractors also find themselves in the midst of a huge rally.

A new report says that the barely-talked-about freelance workforce is growing three times faster than overall labor growth. Right now, it contributes $1.4 trillion to our economy.

This trend is bound to shake up employment as we know it.

And I've uncovered a great tech leader poised to crush the market thanks to this unstoppable trend.
